Manage episode 488240095 series 2860275
What if believing in yourself was the difference between thriving and just surviving as a creative entrepreneur?
In this episode, I sit down with Charlene Dinger, founder and creative director of Kinisi Kids, to explore the mindset shifts that transform creative businesses from struggling to thriving. Charlene's journey from competitive dance burnout to building a joyful, profitable business in less than a year proves that when we change our beliefs about what's possible, everything changes.

- Why the "starving artist" mentality keeps creatives stuck in underearning cycles
- How to leverage your warm network to land major contracts without feeling salesy
- The mindset shift that transforms rejection into momentum
- Why multiple revenue streams in your zone of genius create stability
- How to define success on your own terms
- The strategy that keeps you top-of-mind with potential clients
